Entombed [ang.]

Autor: Fairstein, Linda A.

Workers demolishing a nineteenth-century brownstone where Edgar Allan Poe once lived discover a human skeleton entombed -- standing -- behind a brick wall. When sex crimes prosecutor Alexandra Cooper hears about the case, it strikes her as a classic Poe scene...except that forensic evidence shows that this young woman died within the last twenty-five years. Meanwhile, Alex`s old nemesis the Silk Stocking Rapist is once again terrorizing Manhattan`s Upper East Side. The attacks soon escalate to

murder, and the search leads Alex and detectives Mercer Wallace and Mike Chapman to the city`s stunning Bronx Botanical Gardens. There, an enigmatic librarian presides over the Raven Society, a group devoted to the work of Poe. In exploring the fabled writer`s tormented life for clues, Alex will cross paths with a cunning killer and face some of the greatest challenges of her career. Entombed is masterful, exhilarating crime fiction from one of crime writing`s most dazzling stars.
